Building LyX on Cygwin
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
To build lyx, you will need to install the following cygwin packages
|
|
|
|
aspell gzip libpng libQtGui4-devel
|
|
aspell-dev gettext libQtCore4 pkg-config
|
|
gcc gettext-devel libQtCore4-devel python
|
|
gcc4 libiconv libQtGui4
|
|
|
|
Currently only the traditional autotools (autoconf, automake, make etc)
|
|
build system is recommended to build LyX on cygwin. It does not differ
|
|
from building lyx on any typical posix system, so you are referred to the
|
|
INSTALL file.
|
|
Note that it is not advisable using the cmake build system on cygwin for
|
|
the reasons explained here: http://www.cmake.org/Bug/view.php?id=10122
|
|
|
|
When lyx is built as outlined above, it will be a X-Window application,
|
|
so you will need a X-server for running it. It is possible to build lyx
|
|
as a cygwin application but using the native Windows GDI backend instead
|
|
of X11. You are referred to the lyx wiki for instructions:
